-The game originally was written as a DLC for Valhalla then turned into a standalone as it gained more depths during development
-The gameplay seems to be closer to Origins, lots of gadgets and items to use during mission, the skill tree is smaller with only about 15 skills to unlock, several weapons to unlock with big missions.
-4 mains assassination target, closer to AC1 as you will have to investigate these targets to know who they are and gain informations before killing them
-Almost complete disappearance of the mythology, apparently no more god-like powers to use during battles
-The story of Bazim starts as a simple thief who come accross an artifact of the First Civilisation
-There is an Isu temple in the Alamut fortress (which is actually said on the AC wiki apparently)
-Although the map is only Baghdad, this city will be much bigger than Paris in Unity as it will also have villages and desert areas outside the city.
-The story will explore how the Order went from "The Hidden Ones" to The Assassins we know
-More stealth, tailing, listening mission etc.
-the Eagle is still here but the Eagle Vision is also back
-Come back of the notoriety system making guards more and more suspicious of you etc.
-No more choosing your character or having dialogue choices, choices that impacts the story
-Don't expect the parkour etc. to be as great as it was in Unity
-The factions are back like with Ezio, you can recruit thieves, mercenaries etc.
